A loud, overexaggerated sigh pulled Shouto’s attention away from his phone briefly. He didn’t bother to look away from the news article he was reading, but he did cock an eyebrow. Another sigh was earned with that one.
“How can I help you, Inasa?” he hummed as a third, somehow louder, sigh sounded in his ear.
“I dunno… you’re just spending a lot of time on your phone when you could be spending time with me,” Inasa whined. Finally, Shouto looked away from his screen to his boyfriend. The larger man was leaned fully against him, his chin resting on Shouto’s shoulder and lower lip curled into a pout. Shouto smiled and rolled his eyes before turning back to his phone.
“I don’t know what you mean, Inasa. We’re spending time together right now,” Shouto replied as he scrolled. Inasa whined, tugging on Shouto’s arm.
“I have a boyfriend. A whole boyfriend and he won’t even cuddle me when I very clearly am asking to be cuddled!” Inasa insisted, somehow scooting even closer to Shouto on the sofa. Shouto held back his laughter, pressing his lips into a thin line. “Can’t you cuddle me for just a little bit? I won’t bother your reading anymore,” Inasa offered as he began to gently pick the fuzz balls off of Shouto’s sweater.
Shouto took a deep breath through his nose; it was so easy to get Inasa in a state like this. It took, quite literally, no effort on his part. All he had to do was go into a different room or do anything independently and Inasa would be by his side in twenty minutes or less. These days, he couldn’t even take a shower alone…
...Not that he really minded that too much.
Shouto turned off his phone, earning a loud cheer from Inasa. He turned to face the large man, who was now leaning back on his knees, smiling at Shouto. Without hesitation, Shouto leaned forward and pressed their lips together, his thin fingers trailing over Inasa’s cheek. Inasa hummed happily as he wrapped his arms around Shouto’s waist and pulled him in close.
“You really should stop promising to not bother me,” Shouto whispered when he finally pulled away. Inasa laughed, kissing him softly once more.
“But it’s the quickest way to get you to stop what you’re doing and kiss me again.”
“Yeah, but I think it’d be a pretty big upset for both of us if you stopped bothering me all the time. I like it when you bother me.”
“You do?”
“Of course I do, baby. I want you to bother me all the time.” Inasa laughed again, burying his nose in Shouto’s chest. Shouto ran his fingertips across Inasa’s shaved scalp, massaging it as he went.
“Then I guess I’ll just have to keep on bothering you,” Inasa whispered into his sweater. Shouto grinned.
“I’d like that very much.”
